Coming soon to my "not interested" list: Ghost In The Call Of The Shell Duty.
In the wake of generic shooters comes: A generic shooter Generic shooter v89345679458762894506720894: The game
Was hoping it was a remake of the PSX game. Instead it's just some MMO COD bullshit that the news bot decided not to fully title.

Watched some gameplay, goddamn it looks generic as fuck. It has a extremely generic "sci fi city" style over it.
[QUOTE=darth-veger;49180491]Watched some gameplay, goddamn it looks generic as fuck.

Kind of difficult to expect more from a shooter based in the near-future.

[QUOTE=darth-veger;49180491]Watched some gameplay, goddamn it looks generic as fuck. It has a extremely generic "sci fi city" style over it.[/QUOTE] its sad how GitS still stands up on its own very well with a very unique style and tone, even today, and they still managed to make Sci Fi: The game.
[QUOTE=ashxu;49180914]neotokyo had an amazing aesthetic and was pretty much based on gits[/QUOTE] It's maps looked pretty standard to me. But aye the character models, weapons, and general props and shit were top-notch GitS level stuff.
If you want ghost in the shell just play Deus Ex or something.
[QUOTE=AntonioR;49181065]If you want ghost in the shell just play Deus Ex or something.[/QUOTE] I'm still surprised there's never been any Ghost in the Shell-style mods for the original Deus Ex all these years.

[QUOTE=cdr248;49180983]It's maps looked pretty standard to me. But aye the character models, weapons, and general props and shit were top-notch GitS level stuff.[/QUOTE] You joking? They had a lot of good maps in urban areas with a lot of details. There were also some cool maps that blended the old and the new such as the map in the temple.
40 seconds of gameplay isn't anything to judge it by. I'll play the beta before I judge it.

Everything else looked like pretty regular urban and office levels. Imo, neoTokyo's maps don't look [I]that [/I]more unique than what I'm seeing with this GitS game. I guess you could say neoTokyo fits in better with GitS' aesthetic whereas the F2P game just kinda looks like Kamino or someshit. I just don't find nT's maps to be overly stylistic is all.

[QUOTE=space1;49182136]40 seconds of gameplay isn't anything to judge it by. I'll play the beta before I judge it.[/QUOTE] Couple of FPers already played a pre-release version and found it to be nothing to write home about. And I really don't expect Nexon to do a 180.
If it was some kind of an MMORPG, I'd give it the benefit of a doubt because Mabinogi is a Nexon hosted MMORPG that isn't terrible and the cash shop isn't that bad. However, every MMOFPS that Nexon licenses ends up a bot/cheater filled cash grab. So I too have little faith. At least Aeria Games didn't get it. As I've said before, Aeria Games is [b]MUCH[/b] worse at turning games into cash grabs.
[QUOTE=space1;49182136]40 seconds of gameplay isn't anything to judge it by. I'll play the beta before I judge it.[/QUOTE] Played the beta. It didn't stand out as anything special. It's got pretty standard fare Call of Duty gameplay. As someone who only plays modern online FPS's occasionally, it felt almost exactly like recent Call of Duties or Blacklight: Retribution, just with a somewhat different take on kill streaks.
it's like Neotokyo or Dystopia with Nexon BS tacked on. Pass.
